Any Sports card collectors here?

I have some baseball cards from pre 88 into the 70's. Now they just sit there. If I decided to sell them what the best way not to get completely ripped off? Of course whomever I sold them too would have to make a considerable margin but....

Ken, sorry for the late reply.
Fist, buy a beckett(price guide) specifically for baseball cards. Your best bet would be to look up the more popular players you have cards of from each of those years. Once you've identified the pricier cards, go to ebay, do an advanced search and check the "completed items" box. If it's a price you're comfortable with, then list it there. If not, you could then go to an online trading site such as : sports card forum and post a WTS thread. If you need any more help, shoot me a pm

I do collect cards and other memorabilia but mostly silly stuff or cool stuff I can get for cheap. A card store near me sells unopened boxes of hockey cards from the late 80's/early 90's for about 10 bucks. Me and my buddy will buy them and just have fun opening them and remembering all the players. I have a pretty big box full.

As for the silly stuff I collect, its mostly from players I liked and things like that. I have a Ron Francis Maple Leafs Jersey, an NHL 75th Anniversary jersey from Kellogs (I collect ANYTHING with the 75th logo on it) and my prized posession...
